1.0 Background
On behalf of Reilly Industries, Inc. (Reilly), Environmental Strategies Corporation has
prepared this Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Manual for the Big John Salvage Hoult Road
site located in Fairmont, Marion County, West Virginia (Figure 1). This document was prepared
in response to the requests from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) via
letter dated April 17, 2003. The O&M manual provides the information appurtenant to
successful operation and maintenance of the seep collection and treatment system installed by
Reilly in response to the Administrative Order for Removal Response Action, Docket No. III-
2000-026-DC (Order) issued by EPA.
The system was put into operation on March 31, 2001 and continues to operate as
designed. Based on system readings, the runtime efficiencies as of May 1 were calculated to be
about 96 percent for the East Tributary and about 98 percent for the Middle Tributary.
ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES AR115072
2.0 System Description
The system is comprised of two seep collection systems consisting of underdrains and
pump stations, and a treatment system consisting of filtering and carbon absorption. The
collection and treatment system is described in the following sections. Figure 2 shows the
location ofthe system components at the site.
2.1 Seep Collection System
Seep collection systems were installed in the East and Middle Tributaries. The purpose
ofthe seep collection systems is to collect groundwater and associated NAPL that had previously
discharged to the surface along the upper reaches of the East and Middle Tributaries. The
collection systems meets the requirements of both Section 8.3d and 8.3e of the Order which
specifies that Reilly stop the discharge of hazardous substances to surface water and stabilize
source areas.
The design for the seep collection system was verbally presented and approved by EPA
and WVDEP on December 7, 2000. A design memorandum (with drawings) was submitted to
EPA and WVDEP on December 14, 2000.
2.1.1 Underdrain Construction
The seep collection system is designed to collect groundwater and NAPL but allows
surface water runoff to bypass the collection system and enter SSR. Using this design, the
volume of collected water is kept relatively constant, and storm events do not flood the system.
Figure 3 provides details on the construction ofthe seep collection system.
The primary components ofthe seep collection system are the following:
• Non-woven geotextile, between native shale and the placed gravel layer (east
only), and at the bottom of each collection system
Perforated high density polyethylene (HDPE) collection pipe (east tributary only)
Washed gravel
Geonet composite drainage layer
Low permeability clean fill
Precast concrete manhole
ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES AR115073
• Submersible pump with automatic on/off switch based on water level between
gravel and SSR
• Soil-bentonite cutoff wall downgradient ofthe manhole area
The East Tributary seep collection system extends from the upsfream limits of the
seepage in the East Tributary to the confluence with SSR. In the Middle Tributary, the collection
system extends from the top ofthe slope to the confluence with SSR (See Figure 2).
The seep collection systems were installed by grading the bottom and sides of the
excavated area so that a positive slope was maintained and a suitable subgrade was provided for
the composite drainage layer. The composite drainage layer provides a pathway for seepage
from the excavation sidewalls to drain into the gravel and discharge to the manhole. The
drainage layer material is situated along the excavated sidewalls to allow seep capture.
There is a non-woven geotextile in the bottom of the East Tributary excavation. The
purpose of the geotextile is to eliminate mixing of the native shale layer with the gravel layer of
the collection system. By isolating the gravel and the native material with a geotextile, the
potential for clogging the collection system with fines is greatly reduced.
A 4-inch diameter perforated HDPE collection pipe lies along the center of the East
Tributary excavation. There are three cleanouts with threaded end caps along the length of the
East Tributary. Due to the steep slope and width of the Middle Tributary, a collection pipe was
not installed.
Approximately 12 inches of American Association of State Highway and Transportation
Officials (AASHTO) washed No. 1 gravel lies over the pipe and geotextile in the East Tributary.
In the Middle Tributary the gravel was placed directiy on the bottom of the excavation. At the
base ofthe Middle Tributary the gravel depth increases to approximately 3.5 feet due to the steep
slope. The gravel layer (and the perforated HDPE pipe in the East) serve as a collection and
conveyance medium for groundwater and NAPL that enter the collection system. The gravel
layer is covered with the non-woven geotextile to prohibit soil from entering and clogging the
gravel and HDPE pipe layer.
ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES AR115074
2.1.2 Collection Manholes
Four-foot diameter, pre-cast concrete manholes provide the collection sumps for the seep
collection systems. The manholes are located upstream of the confluence with SSR. The
manholes are keyed approximately 1 foot into the bedrock to allow complete drainage of the
seep collection systems. The manhole lids extend above the estimated high water level in each
ofthe collection systems.
There is a submersible effluent pump in each manhole. The pimip in the Middle
Tributary is a Goulds Model 3885 WE15HH, and the pump m the East Tributary is a Goulds
Model 3885 WEI OH. Appendix A contains the manufacturer cut sheets.
A soil-bentonite cutoff wall is in place at the downgradient portion of the collection
system in both the East and Middle Tributaries. This subsurface cutoff wall reduces the potential
for flow to bypass the collection manholes. The cutoff wall acts as a hydraulic barrier to prevent
subsurface flow towards SSR.
2.1.3 Conveyance Utilities
Conveyance piping and electrical conduit are installed in a trench. In the East Tributary,
the conveyance pipe is located in the gravel layer of the collection system from the manhole to a
point halfway up the tributary where it joins the conveyance ditch. The electrical conduit was
installed above ofthe gravel layer from the manhole to a location approximately halfway up the
East Tributary, where it joins a conveyance ditch.
In the Middle Tributary, the conveyance pipe is installed within the gravel layer from the
manhole to the top ofthe collection system. However, the electrical conduit is above the gravel
layer from the manhole to the top of the collection system, where it joins the conveyance ditch.
The conveyance ditch from each tributary terminates at the treatment system. Metallic marker
tape is installed above the electrical conduit and water conveyance pipe in both tributaries.
Figure 2 shows the locations ofthe conveyance piping.
2.1.4 Soil Cover/Surface Water Ditch Construction
A minimum of 12 inches of clean fill covers the non-woven geotextile. The clean fill is a
low-permeability soil, which is intended to provide a barrier to minimize surface water
infiltration into the seep collection system. The soil cover is vegetated for erosion control.
ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES AR115075
2.2 Treatment System
The trailer mounted system is set up for automatic freatment of the water collected in the
seep collection system. The system includes two transfer pumps, six bag filter vessels, (two
parallel sets of three) and three granular activated carbon vessels. Figure 4 shows a schematic
diagram of the treatment process. A design memorandum was submitted to EPA and WVDEP
onApril2, 2001.
2.2.1 Power Hook-up
A single phase, 200-amp, 120/240-volt power supply is installed for the treatment
system. A 7.2-KV metering structure is installed on Suncrest Boulevard, where the main
disconnect is located. Three power poles support the power line from Suncrest Boulevard to the
treatment system (See Figure 2).
2.2.2 Bag Filters
The treatment system contains two parellel sets, each with three bag filters plumbed in
series, as shown on Figure 4. A pressure gauge is installed before each bag filter to monitor the
plugging ofthe filters. Initially, the bag filters were sized as follows: 25-micron, 10-micron, and
5-micron. Over time, the bag filter sizes were increased to 100-micron, 50-micron, and 25-
micron due to excessive clogging of the bag filters. Even with the change, the concentration of
total suspended solids (TSS) has never approached the publicly owned treatment works POTW
discharge limits.
2.2.3 Granular Activated Carbon Vessels
Each of the three vessels has a capacity of approximately 1,000 pounds of 8 x 30 mesh
reactivated carbon. There is a sample port before and after each vessel. With the three carbon
vessels in use, the system is typically treating approximately 400,000 gallons of water before
requiring changeout.
ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES AR115076
2.2.4 Sanitary Sewer Permit
The treatment system effluent is discharged to the City of Fairmont sanitary sewer. The
discharge is permitted under Industrial User Discharge Permit Number #064. The permit is
included as Appendix B. The approximate manhole discharge location is shown on Figure 2.
Effluent monitoring includes analysis for the full Hst of parameters included in the
discharge permit at a frequency of 3 times per year. The discharge limit for these compounds is
50 micrograms per Hter (^g/l) per compound or a total of 200 |ig/l for combined compounds. As
required by the permit, discharge monitoring reports are submitted to the City of Fairmont
Sanitary Sewer Board no later than the fifteenth ofthe month following the sample period.
ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES AR115077
3.0 Operation and Maintenance Activities
3.1 Inspections
The system is desinged to operate automatically. To verify that the system is operating
appropriately, Environmental Sfrategies performs routine inspections. The inspections are
performed approximately every two weeks. The following activities are performed during the
visits:
• Check pressure oil bag filters and replace, as necessary (i.e., the filters are
exchanged as the pressure approaches 20 pounds per square inch)
• Record runtime and alarm time at manhole
• Record instantaneous and total flow
• Sample effluent (3 times per year)
Each year, Reilly has had Remediation Services, Inc. (RSI) perform a preventative
system check of the electrical and plumbing within the trailer (RSI owns the trailer, rents it to
Reilly, and was the contractor that built the collection systems).
Site inspections are currently conducted only under EPA or EPA contractor oversight.
3.2 Carbon Changeouts
The system has operated since March 31, 2001. As of May 5, 2003, the system has
treated 2,506,7000 gallons of water from the East and Middle Tributary collection systems. The
carbon has been changed five times, as follows:
June 2001 330,800 gallons treated (2,000 # carbon) September 2001 435,600 gallons freated (3,000 # carbon) February 2002 477,500 gallons treated (3,000 # carbon) July 2002 484,500 gallons freated (3,000 # carbon) February 2003 556,500 gallons treated (3,000 # carbon)
BTEX sampling has been used by Environmental Strategies to monitor carbon life and
determine when carbon changes will be needed. Based on data from monthly sampling, 3,000
pounds of carbon can handle 400,000 to 500,000 gallons of influent water.
ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES AR115078
8
3.3 Sampling
Sampling is routinely done to monitor effluent from the freatment plant. The permit calls
for quarterly sampling of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX). The limit for the
discharge concentrations of any one of those individual parameters is 50 |Lig/l. In addition, a
longer list of fraditional wastewater parameters is to be sampled three times per year. Limits
have been established in the permit for all of the parameters, but the system has not typically
contained any of these non-BTEX parameters in the waste stream.
The results of BTEX sampling are summarized on Table 1. There has never been a
"significant non-compliance" issue at the site. There was one exceedance in May 2001. Carbon
was changed within one week ofthe problem.
ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES AR115079
4.0 Contingency Plan
4.1 System Safeguards
Protection is built into the design of the system. The automated components provide the
safeguards to respond to malfunctions associated with unforeseen envfronmental conditions and
unplanned system shutdowns and prevent overflow situations.
The design of the system incorporated features that would shut off the entire system, or
parts of the system, if certain conditions occurred. The design evaluated those conditions where
continued operation could result in more problems than system shut-down (for example
equipment damage or releases from the freatment system trailer). Based on this, there were shut-
off triggers designed into the system to both alert operators of problems or stop the system. As
described previously, each pump station (manhole) is equipped with an emergency liquid level
switch that activates an alarm (i.e., a light turns on indicating that the liquid level in the
manhole(s) has risen outside the normal operating range).
When the level in the manhole raises above the high level float lever, that indicates that
the pump is unable to remove water at a rate that brings the level down. Once the alarm is
triggered, site persormel will contact contractors as listed below, and repairs or other
maintenance will be performed. There is also a float/alarm system built into the secondary
containment sump at the freatment frailer. If a leak occurs in the treatment system, water is
captured in the sump and if the sump fills, the float shuts off the entire system to prevent
pumping untreated water to the top of the hill. In turn this will eventually trigger the manhole
alarms, and site personnel will notify ESC or response contractors.
The site is currently marmed on a daily basis (Monday through Friday) by EPA, its
representative, and/or its contractor. The site workers are instructed to notify Environmental
Strategies in the event an alarm condition is evident. This approach is commonly applied to
remedial systems (e.g., groundwater pump and treat) to provide reasonable notification of a
problem and commensurate response. With the current system design, the runtime efficiency of
the east tributary was 95.3 percent and the runtime efficiency for the middle tributary was 97.5
percent over the approximate 2-year system operation.
To respond to non-routine maintenance activities, Reilly has contracted McCutcheon
Enterprises of Apollo, PA to respond to problems.

10. Defmirions
a) Daily Maximum - The maximum allowable discharge of pollutant during a calendar day. Where daily maximum limitations are expressed in units of mass, the daily discharge is the total mass discharged over the course ofthe day. Where daily maximum limitations are expressed terms of concentration, the daily discharge is the arithmetic average measurement ofthe pollutant concentration derived from all measurements taken that day.
b) Composite Sample - A sample that is collected over time, formed either by continuous sampling or by mixing discrete samples. The sample may be composite either as a time composite sample: composed of discrete sample aliquots collected in one container at constant time intervals providing representative samples irrespective of sfream flow; or as a flow proportional composite sample: collected either as a constant sample volume at time intervals proportional to sfream flow, or collected by increasing the volume of each aliquot as the flow increases while maintaining a constant time interval between the aliquots. When 24 hours composite sampling is required by this permit, and discharge is limited to specific hours and/or shifts, the composite is to be taken during those production hours.
c) Grab Sample - An individual sample collected in less than 15 minutes, without regard to flow or time.
d) Instantaneous Maximum Concentration - The maximum concentration allowed in any single grab sample.
e) Cooling Water -
(1) Uncontaminated: Water used for cooling purposes only which has no direct contact with any raw material, intermediate, or fmal product and which does not contain a level of contaminants detectably higher than that ofthe intake water.
